Featured Yarn Shop: Unwound: Unique Yarns and Accessories
August 30, 2011
Here's another exciting installment of our Featured Yarn Shops! Here's what Melinda, the owner of this wonderfully inviting shop in Blowing Rock, NC, tells us:
"Exciting things have been happening at Unwound, Unique Yarns in Blowing Rock, NC!
We’ve moved up the hill to Main Street! We invite you to visit our new shop located in the heart of North Carolina’s prettiest town.
Our new location at 1132 Main Street (in the courtyard just behind Kojay’s) offers over 2100 sf (look at the photo below!!!) of luxury and comfort!
The warm inviting atmosphere will entice you to sit and knit with us in our comfortable visitors’ “living room” or browse through our many books and patterns for ideas. Wander through the shop and enjoy the many colors and textures of our beautiful yarns, then match it with some of our unique buttons.
Need help with a difficult stitch? Owner, Melinda Mayronne and her experienced staff are available to help.
Want some in-depth private instruction? Call us for an appointment.
Or, sign up for some of our exciting project classes to be held in our large class room area. We have it all right here! You have to see (and touch!) our yarn to really appreciate the experience. But - as a teaser - here are some of the brands we stock: Malabrigo, Louet, Hand Painted, Colinette, Sublime, Jade Sapphire, Blue Heron, Schaefer, and more. We’re also excited to support some of our favorite independent dyers like The Unique Sheep, Claudia, Blue Ridge Yarns….and others.
We carry the popular Addi Turbo needles by Skacel and proudly distribute the beautiful bags handmade by Atenti."
Thanks, Melinda!! And thanks too for being a Featured Yarn Shop and sponsoring my latest pattern, the #133 High Low Glamorous Top-Down Cardigan. You sent me the Disco Lights yarn from Tilli Tomas to try out and I loved it!
